    "Sehe guter Hampden. Klassische Mandeln, Buttersäure. Toller Hampden und die Aschestückchen in der Flasche haben auch Flair."

    "Tasting-Abend bei Dr. Django (Jamaica): Der Black Adder zeigt ganz schön Power, obwohl er eine nicht ganz so hohe ABV hat. An der Nase sehr klassische Hampden-Essenz , am Gaumen hat er perfekte Trinkstärke, cremig weich verteilt er sich, um dann die volle Aromenvielfalt zu präsentieren. Der Abgang ist mittellang. Eine klasse Abfüllung."

    "A real bomb. Very complex ester and lovely . A lot going on without being overwhelming. I am quite happy with the rawcask bits. But it is not as good as I remember it. Really top of the lrok line though"
